By Melissa Antoinette Garza With everyone panicked about the Coronavirus, I decided to venture into a film that would make the end of the world seem like an improvement. Cue the newest remake of BLACK CHRISTMAS (2019). The movie opens with Lindsay (Lucy Currey) leaving campus to go to […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza The Invisible Man is a dick! Fuck him. I hate that guy. He’s a rich geeky bitch with a bad temper. Imma want to punch him in his oddly shaped head. I’ll start at the beginning because that’s usually the best place to start, MEMENTO (2000) […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza I had wanted to see JOJO RABBIT (2019) since it was released. The trailers looked very promising, and I’m a huge fan of Sam Rockwell. I’ve heard nothing but good things, and was certain I was in for a stellar film. I was not disappointed. […]
Harley Quinn: Birds of Prey (2020) – Movie Review (Margot Robbie, Rosie Perez, Ewan McGregor)
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I saw this movie a few nights back when it was still called BIRDS OF PREY AND THE FANTABULOUS EMANCIPATION OF ONE HARLEY QUINN (2020). To be completely honest, I wasn’t as excited as one would expect me to be to see the film. Don’t get […]
Available on 2/11 – TIME LIFE PRESENTS – I GOT YOU BABE: THE BEST OF SONNY & CHER
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I have always had a soft spot in my heart for Sonny Bono. When I was little, reruns of THE SONNY & CHER COMEDY HOUR (1971) would be on every morning before school. I loved everything from the colorful cartoon beginning, to the initial songs […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza I wasn’t actually going to review HUSTLERS (2019) tonight. I was going to go to sleep, but I’m in a sour mood and wide awake. Jeff, who is one of my dearest friends, had his Twitter account suspended because some malicious douche reported him. […]
Countdown (2019) Horror Movie Review [Elizabeth Lail, Jordan Sullivan, Tichina Arnold]
![Countdown (2019) Horror Movie Review [Elizabeth Lail, Jordan Sullivan, Tichina Arnold]](https://scaredstiffreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Countdown-5-768x321.jpg)
By Melissa Antoinette Garza What do you get when you combine FINAL DESTINATION (2000), RING (1998) and APP (2013)? The answer is something better than I expected. Don’t get me wrong, COUNTDOWN (2019) isn’t great. It isn’t groundbreaking or original. In fact, it’s formulaic, predictable and in a few […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza I love Bill Skarsgård. By far, BATTLECREEK (2017) is my favorite film that he stars in, though he of course shined in the role as Pennywise in the IT (2017) films. VILLAINS(2019) was one of those flicks that I had desperately wanted to see when it […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza It doesn’t get better than the Beach Boys and the album Pet Sounds. Ever since I can remember, a Missy would groove to those tunes. It’s more than music. Any time I relax, meditate and listen, it’s an experience. The songs strike chords in […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza I have been interested in THE MANDELA EFFECT (2019) for a very long time. I find the theory to be a compelling one, and there are definitely examples that not only resonate with me, but freak me out a bit. The one that gets my […]
